The biggest colony?

[Deftones90]

Out of curiosity, whats the biggest colony of scorps you've seen or had?

 

[Roblicious]

there is a guy whose selling a 'starter' colony kit of emps on the for sale section and he showed pics of his, and theres a ton of emps in a container.

and the guy i buy scorpions off of has a 80+ colony of 4i-5i babycurus jacksonis, along with their adult counterparts

I bet the jacksoni one is pretty sweet. I saw the emp one too.

I currently have a colony of about 30 only... I think my 1 female is gravid, i may have seen a spermataphore haha! Hope they are gravid!

I have 7 jacksoni with 1 gravid female, most of them are sub adults 1 molt away from maturity or adulthood depending on sex

I have a small colony of 5 adult sculps 4 female 1 male, and a ton of babies I have no idea how many inside a licorice container

I had a colony of 70 C. Gracilis before I sold them all off (56 3rd instars, 6 2nd instars, and 8 mature adults) I currently have a colony of 16 3rd instar H. Longimanus and will be starting a colony of 5 L. Mucronatus this week.

I always remove the babies to seperate tanks, if not I'd have had a few 100 plus colonies. My Grosphus grandidier has produced big broods (40+) babies twice in the last year. If I kept them all in one tank, it would b scary. Maybe I'll throw a few Tityus Stigmurus in a 40 gallon tank filled with all kinds of cork, and an endless supply of food. I bet in three years you could be up to several hundreds.


Anyways I'd like to see some pictures of big colonies.

I'd like to get some going mainly with Centruroides sp. but I'd also like to get my hands on some Tityus sp. and maybe some of those G. grandidier.

I once had a colony of 20+ Babycurus jacksoni (Adults and sub-adults)....But sold most of them off. :unhappy:
I would like to start another colony of scorpions, most likely the emperors, but given the circumstance I'm currently in I just don't have the time and resources to maintain one.

fyi, it is Grosphus grandidieri, with an -i- .....

150 Pandinus imperator, but I kept them in tubs of 50, so yeah.


Bawse.
